UCLA’s offense is painful
-
Marquette isn’t that good either. They’re not skilled but boy do they play hard
-
Looks like Shaka Smart has another crack at Kansas…

No one is good! In all of college basketball! Wide open year imo.

Is this NIL creating parity?

That plus some missed development time with younger guys due to covid.

Duke losing to 1-5 Southern Indiana at home at the half.
-
Baylor looks pretty dam solid-- - - -deep bench

Thru Feast Week, B12 has not been quite as dominant as some prior years, but still has a good collection of P5 and other quality wins, including a few against ranked teams: Kentucky, Tennessee, USC, Auburn, San Diego State, Utah, NC State, Florida, Iowa, and Michigan. Only OSU and WVU have bad losses.
-
Not worth another thread, but just read that Tony Gwynn played college hoops at SDState and had 590 assists in his career. He had 434 strikeouts in his 20 year MLB career. It must drive him nuts to watch guys strike out as much as they do these days.
-
@wissox I’d guess Tony would not care much, as he would be watching from Heaven.
-
@dylans Yeah, was trying to remember if he was still with us.
-
Kentucky is putting it to Miami by almost 30 points
-
Over 30 pts again for that Dillingham/Sheppard combo
-
KSU currently in OT with noted powerhouse Oral Roberts.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 historically ORU has been pretty good. I guess they suck this year?
-
ORU beat us about 20 years ago I believe.
-
UNC might actually be good this year. And we could’ve had one of their best players. Sigh.
-
@wissox in 2006 78-71 in Allen if I remember correctly. If only a KU trivia game paid money lol

UNC making Tennessee look silly, they look pretty decent in this 1st half anyways. -Your right would of been nice to have gotten Ingram
-
UNC put 61 up on Rocky Top in the first half. I was counting that as a good win for us over them.
-

Deep sigh.

@BShark Who could we have had and why didn’t we have him?
-
UConn has a NCAA record of 24 double digit wins vs. non conf opponents.

Harrison Ingram was pretty interested in KU. To the level that lots of people assumed he would end up at KU.
It seemed like in general we were pretty committed to playing KJ at the 4 and went out of our way to not recruit players that would interfere with that.
-
The Hogs giving ol Duke quite a tussle at half up by one. - -Crowd pretty revved up- - -SOOOOOOOOOOOOWEEEEEEEE - -GO RAZORBACKS
-
@jayballer67 - down goes Duke, 80-75. They almost came back all the way.
-
Louisville had one player, a 4 star freshman tell his coach he couldn’t play because the team didn’t have the kind of tights he likes to play in. Keep in mind he’d never worn that kind while playing with them before either.
I’d be like son, there’s a real nice coach down the road go play for him. I’d yank his scholarship so fast he’d be on the bus home by the time of the opening tip.
I wonder what Danny said to him who’s an assistant there now.
-
All that running and zero chance of seeing the floor is all I can think about if someone pulled that stunt @wissox
-
@wissox I’m surprised the kid didn’t sue. Hey, it’s his God given right to wear those tights. He “identifies” as that kind of tights wearer.
-
@Gorilla72 Musselman had to withstand Duke’s inside game and got Duke in foul trouble early and blocked 10 shots but had to because they gave up 11 offensive rebounds. Filipowski showed up in the second half with 22 points in the half and he is the real deal. Arkansas played defense as hard as they could all game and fumbled away, during the last 6 minutes, their 14 point lead. It didn’t seem Duke was that deep on the bench.
-
He played 16 minutes in the second half. Louisville has never had the tights he wanted but he toughed it out with 8 points and five dimes.
-
-
@Zabudda I can’t believe he played him after that.
-
It’s weird. Coach said it was weird of the player but “that’s just the way these kids are now.” Smiling the whole time. We don’t know if someone gave him a come to Jesus meeting. Weird.
-
If Hunter and Kevin get 40 (doable), KJ and DaJuan get 20 (eh ?)and Elmarko, Parker, The Furph, McDowell and Timberlake get three each that’s 75 and with our defense we will be in every game. Is that too much to ask? This means some nights we need to pick each other up. Uh-huh.
-
@wissox There may be more to the Louisville story. The player suffered a groin strain when they played in New York, and the tights were a compression style. Could simply be that the player was scared of hurting it again, and needed to work through that reluctance. If it was medically related, not a good look for the coach’s cavalier comments.
-
@mayjay Thanks, you’re always good at telling us to chill out with our judgment, of course I saw ESPN putting the kid on blast.
-
@wissox On the other hand, looks like this guy played 30 mins 6 days after the last game in NY, so maybe he was milking it or maybe the pain got miserable (been there, done that). In NY Empire Classic, he played 25 mins on the 19th, 17 mins the next night. Can’t find details on injury but several articles mention he has been trying to play with it. Not a starter.
The coach was asked if it was due to the injury, and said he had “no idea”.
I always try to figure out what’s really going on when something as weird as this is reported… and when what is reported has nothing from the other person.
-
Creighton just putting a good ol country ass whuppin on Okie St at half
-
Purdue loses in OT to Northwestern
-
Wisconsin Marquette on Fox right now. Good game so far.
-
Wisconsin currently bitch slapping Marquette.
Wisconsin does not look overly athletic.
Wondering if the KU-MU game was just a weird one off? How the hell…confused.

I believe Shaka had his team pumped up from the get-go with a chip on their shoulder. KU didn’t, unfortunately. We’ll see over the long run, as Marquette has Texas up next, with 2 league games each against UConn, Creighton and Villanova. No other ranked teams on their schedule at this point.
-
Not sad to see Shaka Smart lose. Good job, Wisconsin
-
On Wisconsin!
-
-
@BShark He started slow, then got hurt against Rocky Top. Only made 2 threes all year. Hoping he breaks out of it. In a week from hell MSU Tuesday and then at Arizona next Saturday so not the easiest of times.
-
Numbers one, three and four go down. Houston got away with one.
-
Kohl center was a factor in that one. During the Bo Ryan years it had a rep as one of the toughest places to play. Big seating capacity, tightly packed in seats and I’ve heard it very loud before. Today was like one of those old days. It’s UW’s 2nd ranked win holding Virginia to 41 last week.
